The correct answer is Hull House, which was founded by Jane Addams and Ellen Gates Starr in 1889. It provided a wide range of services to the poor and immigrants in the surrounding neighborhood, including childcare, English classes, and job training. The Chicago School refers to a group of sociologists and criminologists who studied urban life in the early 20th century, while Addams House and University of Chicago are not accurate terms for the first American settlement house.
